Rotavirus? Nappy rash and diarrhea

0 replies

My 5 month old had his jabs 10 days ago, including the rotavirus one (we live abroad, slightly different schedule than NHS). He was a bit subdued and his reflux was a bit worse for 3 days. But then in the last 5 days his tummy has been getting worse, he's upset when feeding, is pooing non stop and has a really nasty diaper rash.

Is this the rotavirus jab? Would the diarrhea not have started right away or does it take a while to affect him? Or a random stomach bug? Anything I can do to help him?

I keep him out of the nappy as long as I can in the day, and I am very diligent with nappy changes, now only using water instead of wet wipes but his bum looks more and more sore. I use nappy cream too.

Still weeing too so I don't think he's dehydrated.
